And because the world is more digital, those who lack basic Internet skills will find it more difficult to take part in the formal economy, to get a quality education, and to have their voices heard. Since 2013 the global gender gap (性别差异) in male and female about the Internet has actually increased from 11 to 12 percent. Worse yet, women and girls living in the poorest countries are 31 percent less likely than men and boys to surf the Internet. In developing countries, some 200 million fewer women than men own a mobile phone, the most common means of surfing the Internet there. This digital divide is increasing, and if it continues at the present pace, it is predicted that over 75 percent of women and girls will lack Internet access and digital skills. There are many causes of the digital gender gap. They include girls’ exclusion (排斥) from basic education, from specific technology education and high costs of mobile phones and Internet access. Indeed, one of the so-called reasons why girls may be discouraged from learning how to access and use digital technology is also a groundless (毫无根据的) one: that girls are simply not good at using technology. Without the help of the government, most of the benefits of technological change will be enjoyed only by men, making gender inequality even more serious. 4. What can we know from Paragraph 1? A. Girls usually don’t like to share their ideas. B. Girls don’t have enough digital knowledge. C. Boys are more interested in making money. D. Boys always receive advanced education. 5. How does the writer make his statement in Paragraph 2? A. By listing numbers. B. By giving reasons. C. By following the time order. D. By giving examples. 6. What is the writer’s attitude to the idea that girls are simply not good at using technology? A. Positive. B. Acceptable. C. Negative. D. Uncaring. 7. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Girls are lacking in education. B. Women suffer a lot from poor economy. C. Internet continues to develop fast and fast. D. Girls are at a disadvantage compared with boys in digital technology. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了与男孩相比，女孩在数字技术方面处于劣势这一社会现象。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Today when it comes to the use of digital technology, girls have less basic education, leaving them far behind boys.(如今，在数字技术的使用方面，女孩接受的基础教育较少，远远落后于男孩)”可知，女孩没有足够的数字技术知识。故选B项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Since 2013 the global gender gap (性别差异) in male and female about the Internet has actually increased from 11 to 12 percent. Worse yet, women and girls living in the poorest countries are 31 percent less likely than men and boys to surf the Internet. In developing countries, some 200 million fewer women than men own a mobile phone, the most common means of surfing the Internet there. This digital divide is increasing, and if it continues at the present pace, it is predicted that over 75 percent of women and girls will lack Internet access and digital skills.(自2013年以来，全球男性和女性在互联网上的性别差距实际上已经从11%扩大到12%。更糟糕的是，生活在最贫穷国家的妇女和女孩上网的可能性比男性和男孩低31%。在发展中国家，拥有手机的女性比男性少约2亿人，而手机是那里最常见的上网方式。这种数字鸿沟正在扩大。如果以目前的速度继续下去，预计超过75%的妇女和女孩将无法上网和掌握数字技能)”可推知，文章第二段主要应用列数据来进行陈述。故选A项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Indeed, one of the so-called reasons why girls may be discouraged from learning how to access and use digital technology is also a groundless (毫无根据的) one: that girls are simply not good at using technology.(事实上，女孩不愿意学习如何接触和使用数字技术的所谓原因之一也是毫无根据的：女孩就是不擅长使用技术)”可推知，作者对女孩不擅长使用科技的观点持否定态度。故选C项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Today when it comes to the use of digital technology, girls have less basic education, leaving them far behind boys.(如今，在数字技术的使用方面，女孩接受的基础教育较少，远远落后于男孩)”及全段内容可知，文章介绍了“与男孩相比，女孩在数字技术方面处于劣势”这一社会现象。故选D项。 C When you hear Broadway, Abbey Road, and Bourbon Street, what comes to mind? The bright lights? The Beatles? Mardi Gras? They are some of the most recognizable streets in the world, and though you may never have set foot on any of them, their names are a familiar part of modern culture. So what’s in a name? A lot! In the early days of urban development in the United States, streets were typically named after landmarks (like Canal or Market), topographic (地形学的) features (like Hill or Water), or location (like East or Upper). Major streets were often given names of power (like State or King) or after heroes and leaders (like Washington or Jefferson). Until the mid-1900s, the majority of the population lived in crowded cities. The roads in urbanized cities were typically laid out in logical, organized grids (网格). Around 1950, however, people began moving out of cities to build homes in the countryside where they could have more land and less urban congestion (拥挤). This movement was the birth of what we now call suburbia. For the first time, many people were moving into homes with private yards and trees. Inspired by the growing suburban trend and increased value people were placing on nature, it became common for suburban communities to name streets after trees and plants (like Elm or Vine or Magnolia). When it comes to new and modern urban development, developers are typically responsible for naming streets in the new neighborhoods they build. Developers often choose street names based on certain desired features they want people to associate with the neighborhood. From Whispering Pine Drive to Buckingham Lane, using the suggestive power of words helps shape a neighborhood even before the first home has been built. 8. Why does the author mention several questions in Paragraph 1? A. To draw the readers’ attention. B. To find out the correct answers. C. To show some people’s puzzles. D. To introduce the topic of the text. 9. What does Paragraph 2 tell us? A. The urban development. B. The changes of the streets. C. The way of naming the streets. D. The varieties of all the streets. 10. How were the suburban streets named? A. By nature. B. By location. C. By landmarks. D. By heroes and leaders. 11. Which of the following is named in a modern way? A. North Main Street. B. Buckingham Lane. C. King James Way. D. Washington Street. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍美国街道命名的由来与演变。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“When you hear Broadway, Abbey Road, and Bourbon Street, what comes to mind? (当你听到“百老汇”“艾比路”和“波旁街”时，脑海中会浮现出什么景象呢？)”可知，文章以知名街道设问，引出街道名字背后蕴含丰富意义这一中心话题。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“In the early days of urban development in the United States, streets were typically named after landmarks (like Canal or Market), topographic (地形学的) features (like Hill or Water), or location (like East or Upper). Major streets were often given names of power (like State or King) or after heroes and leaders (like Washington or Jefferson).(在美国城市发展的早期阶段，街道通常是以地标（如运河或市场）、地形特征（如山丘或水域）或地理位置（如东区或上城区）来命名的。主要街道往往以权力人物（如州长或国王）的名字命名，或者以英雄和领袖的名字（如华盛顿或杰斐逊）来命名。)”可知。本段核心是讲解街道命名的方式。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Inspired by the growing suburban trend and increased value people were placing on nature, it became common for suburban communities to name streets after trees and plants (like Elm or Vine or Magnolia).(受到郊区发展趋势的推动以及人们对自然价值日益重视的影响，郊区社区开始以树木和植物（如榆树、藤蔓树或木兰树）来命名街道。)”可知，城郊街道依照自然事物命名。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“When it comes to new and modern urban development, developers are typically responsible for naming streets in the new neighborhoods they build.(当涉及到新的现代城市发展时，开发商通常负责为他们建造的新社区命名街道。)”和“From Whispering Pine Drive to Buckingham Lane, using the suggestive power of words helps shape a neighborhood even before the first home has been built.(从“低语松树大道”到“白金汉巷”，借助语言的暗示力量，即便在第一栋房屋尚未动工之前，也能塑造出一个社区的风貌。)”可知，Buckingham Lane“白金汉巷”属于现代新式命名风格。 D In winter, intense cold in China’s Jilin Province can turn tripping water into ice within seconds. Yet, 63-year-old Ren Jianguo gets up early every day to spread corn on the riverbank to make sure thousands of migratory birds (候鸟) have food to go through the cold days. Ren lives in Jilin City which is built on the banks of the Songhuajiang River. Over the past 26 years, he has been one of the many volunteers protecting migratory birds on the river’s Changbai Island. Local residents label him as “Uncle Bird”. Winter is the busiest time for Uncle Bird as it is the season when large amounts of migratory birds fly here to avoid the biting cold days in Siberia, Russia. On the upper reaches of the Songhuajiang River is Northeast China’s largest artificial lake. The temperature of the water stays at around 4-10℃ all year round. This allows Changbai Island to welcome countless migratory birds. “As long as they choose to stay in this city, there should be people to take care of them. When it becomes difficult to find food in winter, I call for donations or sometimes pay for the food myself to secure their survival during the winter,” Ren said. Jilin City, which is part of the migratory passage of birds in East Asia, is one of the few warm wetlands in northern China suitable for migratory birds to rest. To improve the environment here, the Chinese government has invested about 26.6 billion yuan for water pollution control and prevention along the Songhuajiang River since 2006. For Ren, a small house near the riverbank has almost become his “second home”, a place from which he can patrol (巡逻) along the banks, observe birds, educate the public about bird conservation and, after a long day of work, light a fire and enjoy a warm meal. “I simply want this to be a warm and welcoming place for birds when they choose to stay here for a temporary rest,” he said. 12. Why does Ren Jianguo volunteer to protect migratory birds? A. To keep himself from being bored. B. To keep the birds from flying away. C. To keep the birds from going hungry. D. To keep the environment from being polluted. 13. Why do the birds come to Changbai Island in the winter? A. To eat high-quality corns. B. To see kind-hearted volunteers. C. For a cleaner environment. D. For a better temperature. 14. Which of the following best describes Ren Jianguo’s work? A. Boring. B. Professional. C. Dangerous. D. Meaningful. 15. What is the best title of this passage? A. The Tale of “Uncle Bird” B. The Environment of Changbai Island. C. The Survival of Birds. D. The Protection of Wetlands. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要通过“鸟叔”任建国的故事呼吁大家保护环境。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Yet, 63-year-old Ren Jianguo gets up early every day to spread corn on the riverbank to make sure thousands of migratory birds (候鸟) have food to go through the cold days.(然而，63岁的任建国每天早早起床，在河堤上撒玉米，以确保成千上万的候鸟有食物度过寒冷的日子)”和第四段“When it becomes difficult to find food in winter, I call for donations or sometimes pay for the food myself to secure their survival during the winter(当冬天很难找到食物时，我就会呼吁捐赠，有时我会自己掏钱买食物，以确保它们在冬天的生存)”可知，任建国保护候鸟是为了不让鸟儿挨饿。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“On the upper reaches of the Songhuajiang River is Northeast China’s largest artificial lake. The temperature of the water stays at around 4-10℃ all year round. This allows Changbai Island to welcome countless migratory birds.(松花江上游是中国东北最大的人工湖。水温常年保持在4-10℃左右。这使得长白岛迎来了无数的候鸟)”可知，长白岛的温度相对比较适宜，所以鸟儿才在冬天飞来长白岛。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“‘I simply want this to be a warm and welcoming place for birds when they choose to stay here for a temporary rest,’ he said.(他说：‘我只是希望当鸟儿们选择在这里暂时休息时，这里能成为一个温暖而受欢迎的地方。’)”可知，任建国坚持不懈保护鸟儿是因为他想让这些鸟儿感受到温暖和爱，所以他的工作是有意义的。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，作者主要介绍了“鸟叔”任建国的数十年如一日保护候鸟栖息地的故事，故文章最好的标题应与“鸟叔”有关，A项“‘鸟叔’的故事”为最佳标题。故选A。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Ways to Make Yourself Happier Every Day Everyone wants to be happy. You see people who are smiling and laughing, and you want to be like them. ____16____ However, there are also bad days where you wear a scowl (不悦的神色) that is capable of scaring away both the sun and smiling people alike. There are ways, however, to ensure that there are more good days than bad days. Here are several ways to make yourself happier every day. Smile often.

Gratitude has been shown to be the ultimate ticket to a happy life.

(你抱怨得越多，就会变得越恼怒。)”围绕抱怨带来的负面影响展开，劝人少抱怨、远离负面情绪，选项A“Stop complaining.(停止抱怨。)”作为段首主题句，统领全段内容，贴合段落主旨。 【19题详解】 上文“To truly boost your long-term happiness, stop complaining.(想要长久提升幸福感，就要停止抱怨。)”提出停止抱怨的建议，选项F“Go an entire day without complaining even once and see how you feel.(试着一整天不抱怨，感受自身状态的变化。)”给出具体可行的做法。 【20题详解】 上文“The more you practice gratitude, the more you will find things to be grateful for in your life.(越常怀感恩之心，就越能发现生活中值得感恩的事。)”讲述感恩带来的改变，选项D“This then leads you to realize how much goodness there is in your life.(这会让你意识到生活中存有诸多美好。)”承接感恩的意义，前后呼应。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A countryman brought from town five of the finest peaches.

My parents had insisted I go to college, but I was tired of school. I hated it. I was determined not to go. And, besides, my father was too strict. I had too many chores to do around the farm. I hated the work! There had been a quarrel between my father and me. I threw some things into a bag and left angrily, as my father shouted after me, “If you leave, don’t come back!” My mother cried openly, and I had seen those tears during a hundred sleepless nights. Then it was time to write a letter to my father. Dear Dad, It’s been more than a year now. I’ve traveled east to west. I’ve had dozens of jobs. None of them amounted to very much. Always the same questions: “How much education have you got?” It seems they always want college men for the good jobs. Dad, you and Mother were right about everything. I know now that the work on the farm didn’t hurt me, and I’m convinced I need college. I’m also convinced that both of you loved me. Dad, I’ve learned a lesson. I want to come home. I know you said if I left, I couldn’t come back, but I’m praying you’ll change your mind. I want to come home and be a part of the family again. Give my love to Mother and the girls. Love, Your son As I folded the letter and put it into an envelope, I felt a refreshing relief. It was as if a heavy load had been lifted from my shoulders. And I had to be on my way home. I started down the desolate road—the long road home. Fortunately, a car picked me up, and it was good to have someone to talk with. The driver was a salesman and very pleasant. “Where you going, boy?” he asked good-naturedly. There was a long silence before I said, “Home.” “Been away from home long?” I smiled, a little self-conscious, and said, “One year, one month and two days.” 注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Having heard my story, he expressed his support for my final decision and told me something surprising. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, I arrived home when. it was completely dark. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Having heard my story, he expressed his support for my final decision and told me something surprising. “Boy, you have made the right choice to go back home,” he said. “To be frank, my son ran away from home two years ago. I have been missing him every hour and every minute.” Now it’s time for me to comfort him, “Don’t worry. I believe he will come back soon, just like me.” I expressed my thanks for his kindness of having me in his car and I wished his son good luck. After all, we are all good people and good people deserve good fortune. Finally, I arrived home when it was completely dark. Nervous and uneasy, I approached the door and knocked on it gently. It was my father who opened the door and my sudden appearance made him go wild with joy. “Son, you’ve finally come back. I’ve been waiting for this moment for long,” said my father in a trembling voice. It was at that moment that I realized there is no place like home and that blood is thicker than water. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者的父母坚持要作者上大学，但作者厌倦了学校，作者和父亲吵了一架后离家出走，在给父亲的信里作者表达了自己的后悔，作者想回家，作者走上了回家的路，遇到了一辆车，司机跟作者进行了交流。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“听了我的故事后，他表示支持我的最终决定，并告诉了我一些令人惊讶的事情。”可知，第一段可描写司机告诉作者自己儿子的事情以及作者安慰司机。 ②由第二段首句内容“最后，我到家时天已经完全黑了。”可知，第二段可描写作者回到了家，作者父亲的反应和作者的感受。 2.续写线索：交谈——表达感谢——希望司机儿子好运——敲门——作者父亲开门——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①表达：express/convey ②希望：wish/hope ③意识到：realize/be aware that 情绪类 ①感谢：express one’s thanks/convey one’s gratitude ②高兴：joy/delight 【点睛】[高分句型1] It was my father who opened the door and my sudden appearance made him go wild with joy.(强调句) [高分句型2] It was at that moment that I realized there is no place like home and that blood is thicker than water.

Barbie has a sister and a brother B. Sukriti thinks that cartoons do harm to children C. Balaji is a schoolchild D. Schoolchildren carry light bags B Today when it comes to the use of digital technology, girls have less basic education, leaving them far behind boys. And because the world is more digital, those who lack basic Internet skills will find it more difficult to take part in the formal economy, to get a quality education, and to have their voices heard. Since 2013 the global gender gap (性别差异) in male and female about the Internet has actually increased from 11 to 12 percent. Worse yet, women and girls living in the poorest countries are 31 percent less likely than men and boys to surf the Internet. In developing countries, some 200 million fewer women than men own a mobile phone, the most common means of surfing the Internet there. This digital divide is increasing, and if it continues at the present pace, it is predicted that over 75 percent of women and girls will lack Internet access and digital skills. There are many causes of the digital gender gap. They include girls’ exclusion (排斥) from basic education, from specific technology education and high costs of mobile phones and Internet access. Indeed, one of the so-called reasons why girls may be discouraged from learning how to access and use digital technology is also a groundless (毫无根据的) one: that girls are simply not good at using technology. Without the help of the government, most of the benefits of technological change will be enjoyed only by men, making gender inequality even more serious. 4. What can we know from Paragraph 1? A. Girls usually don’t like to share their ideas. B. Girls don’t have enough digital knowledge. C. Boys are more interested in making money. D. Boys always receive advanced education. 5. How does the writer make his statement in Paragraph 2? A. By listing numbers. B. By giving reasons. C. By following the time order. D. By giving examples. 6. What is the writer’s attitude to the idea that girls are simply not good at using technology? A. Positive. B. Acceptable. C. Negative. D. Uncaring. 7. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Girls are lacking in education. B. Women suffer a lot from poor economy. C. Internet continues to develop fast and fast. D. Girls are at a disadvantage compared with boys in digital technology. C When you hear Broadway, Abbey Road, and Bourbon Street, what comes to mind? The bright lights? The Beatles? Mardi Gras? They are some of the most recognizable streets in the world, and though you may never have set foot on any of them, their names are a familiar part of modern culture. So what’s in a name? A lot! In the early days of urban development in the United States, streets were typically named after landmarks (like Canal or Market), topographic (地形学的) features (like Hill or Water), or location (like East or Upper). Major streets were often given names of power (like State or King) or after heroes and leaders (like Washington or Jefferson). Until the mid-1900s, the majority of the population lived in crowded cities. The roads in urbanized cities were typically laid out in logical, organized grids (网格). Around 1950, however, people began moving out of cities to build homes in the countryside where they could have more land and less urban congestion (拥挤). This movement was the birth of what we now call suburbia. For the first time, many people were moving into homes with private yards and trees. Inspired by the growing suburban trend and increased value people were placing on nature, it became common for suburban communities to name streets after trees and plants (like Elm or Vine or Magnolia). When it comes to new and modern urban development, developers are typically responsible for naming streets in the new neighborhoods they build. Developers often choose street names based on certain desired features they want people to associate with the neighborhood. From Whispering Pine Drive to Buckingham Lane, using the suggestive power of words helps shape a neighborhood even before the first home has been built. 8. Why does the author mention several questions in Paragraph 1? A. To draw the readers’ attention. B. To find out the correct answers. C. To show some people’s puzzles. D. To introduce the topic of the text. 9. What does Paragraph 2 tell us? A. The urban development. B. The changes of the streets. C. The way of naming the streets. D. The varieties of all the streets. 10. How were the suburban streets named? A. By nature. B. By location. C. By landmarks. D. By heroes and leaders. 11. Which of the following is named in a modern way? A. North Main Street. B. Buckingham Lane. C. King James Way. D. Washington Street. D In winter, intense cold in China’s Jilin Province can turn tripping water into ice within seconds. Yet, 63-year-old Ren Jianguo gets up early every day to spread corn on the riverbank to make sure thousands of migratory birds (候鸟) have food to go through the cold days. Ren lives in Jilin City which is built on the banks of the Songhuajiang River. Over the past 26 years, he has been one of the many volunteers protecting migratory birds on the river’s Changbai Island. Local residents label him as “Uncle Bird”. Winter is the busiest time for Uncle Bird as it is the season when large amounts of migratory birds fly here to avoid the biting cold days in Siberia, Russia. On the upper reaches of the Songhuajiang River is Northeast China’s largest artificial lake. The temperature of the water stays at around 4-10℃ all year round. This allows Changbai Island to welcome countless migratory birds. “As long as they choose to stay in this city, there should be people to take care of them. When it becomes difficult to find food in winter, I call for donations or sometimes pay for the food myself to secure their survival during the winter,” Ren said. Jilin City, which is part of the migratory passage of birds in East Asia, is one of the few warm wetlands in northern China suitable for migratory birds to rest. To improve the environment here, the Chinese government has invested about 26.6 billion yuan for water pollution control and prevention along the Songhuajiang River since 2006. For Ren, a small house near the riverbank has almost become his “second home”, a place from which he can patrol (巡逻) along the banks, observe birds, educate the public about bird conservation and, after a long day of work, light a fire and enjoy a warm meal. “I simply want this to be a warm and welcoming place for birds when they choose to stay here for a temporary rest,” he said. 12. Why does Ren Jianguo volunteer to protect migratory birds? A. To keep himself from being bored. B. To keep the birds from flying away. C. To keep the birds from going hungry. D. To keep the environment from being polluted. 13. Why do the birds come to Changbai Island in the winter? A. To eat high-quality corns. B. To see kind-hearted volunteers. C. For a cleaner environment. D. For a better temperature. 14. Which of the following best describes Ren Jianguo’s work? A. Boring. B. Professional. C. Dangerous. D. Meaningful. 15. What is the best title of this passage? A. The Tale of “Uncle Bird” B. The Environment of Changbai Island. C. The Survival of Birds. D. The Protection of Wetlands. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Ways to Make Yourself Happier Every Day Everyone wants to be happy.

My parents had insisted I go to college, but I was tired of school. I hated it. I was determined not to go. And, besides, my father was too strict. I had too many chores to do around the farm. I hated the work! There had been a quarrel between my father and me. I threw some things into a bag and left angrily, as my father shouted after me, “If you leave, don’t come back!” My mother cried openly, and I had seen those tears during a hundred sleepless nights. Then it was time to write a letter to my father. Dear Dad, It’s been more than a year now. I’ve traveled east to west. I’ve had dozens of jobs. None of them amounted to very much. Always the same questions: “How much education have you got?” It seems they always want college men for the good jobs. Dad, you and Mother were right about everything. I know now that the work on the farm didn’t hurt me, and I’m convinced I need college. I’m also convinced that both of you loved me. Dad, I’ve learned a lesson. I want to come home. I know you said if I left, I couldn’t come back, but I’m praying you’ll change your mind. I want to come home and be a part of the family again. Give my love to Mother and the girls. Love, Your son As I folded the letter and put it into an envelope, I felt a refreshing relief. It was as if a heavy load had been lifted from my shoulders. And I had to be on my way home. I started down the desolate road—the long road home. Fortunately, a car picked me up, and it was good to have someone to talk with. The driver was a salesman and very pleasant. “Where you going, boy?” he asked good-naturedly. There was a long silence before I said, “Home.” “Been away from home long?” I smiled, a little self-conscious, and said, “One year, one month and two days.” 注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Having heard my story, he expressed his support for my final decision and told me something surprising. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, I arrived home when. it was completely dark. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
